Politics is a rough and tumble business. It's not for the faint-hearted. I've got bruises and cuts from being in the political arena. But by and large, I understand how to navigate the process.

Politics is show business for ugly people.

I know politics is emotionally brutal; I've already had experience with the reality of smear campaigns, so I understand there will not be a path of roses laid before me.

What I always try to do is make the political personal.

I don't want to be a politician. I don't like politics. It's petty; it fights dirty.

Politics has always been ugly to me, and yet I accept that as a fact of life.

Look how many millions of people are underemployed or have lost their jobs. The last thing I'm going to do is play politics with their future.

Be your own politics, grow your own garden, and maybe you can help out more.

I'm into politics - I'm interested in the election and how pissed off people get.

I will try to make our politics more human.
